OENOCHIPS R228
inspired by the toast level used on 228l barrels, this blend reveals
an intense and complex expression of ripe fruit underpinned by the delicate mineral
and smoky notes typical of prestigious terroirs.
R228 offers tension and silkiness on the palate, enhancing the finish with a unique
flavour experience!
